Episode 487: Three Hour End of the Year Extravaganza

It’s the last Gaming Podcast episode of 2018, and it’s three hours long! Well, it’s to make up for the fact we won’t be doing one next week. There are only two news items, but the entire bulk of the episode is our Game Awards for 2017, and we took a different tack than most sites and podcasts by inventing our own Awards Categories!

The news we do discuss include:

  • Soulcalibur 6 finally brings the tale of swords and souls to PC
  • The Witcher 3 Xbox One X update could add support for HDR displays

We also discussed the game we’re looking forward to the most in 2018 — let us know which one you are interested in!

  1. Hi guys.
    Thanks for this big long episode. I really enjoyed it, i like long ones …. you get more from the same source 🙂
    I hope all of you had a nice Christmas and a good start in the new year.
    The games i am waiting for in 2018 are:
    Last of us 2
    Bloodstained
    Magic The Gathering – Arena
    Nu no kuni 2
    Dead stranding (or maybe 2019?)
    Seasons of heaven
    Mega man 11
    Soul Calibur 6

    Magic the Gathering Arena is “only” a card game, and is nearly the same game as already available as MTGO, but it has a different look, more like Hearthstone and i am totally in to card games 🙂
    Most of the titles are also not “new” but i really hope that these new parts of the series (can i call it that way, even if its only the second title?) are as good, as the ones before.
    I really like your podcast and hope you will do this for a long time in the future 🙂
    Greetings from Germany.
    Ralf
